Numerical modelling of coupled seepage-deformation subjected to rainfall infiltration in unsaturated slope

Purpose: This study aims to propose another alternative numerical modelling tool, i.e. ABAQUS, to simulate a fully coupled seepage-deformation analysis in unsaturated slope subjected to rainfall infiltration. Design/methodology/approach: The effect of rainfall infiltration on the response of pore wa...
